My musical journey began in a castle, somewhere between bohemian dreams and raw concrete.
As an unnamed duo of art students, we spent our nights in the adjoining 40-square-meter bunker from World War II - no mobile phones, no internet, just cold stone, tangled power cables, and torn-up grunge riffs.
After that band ended in 1995, a whole new world of electronic sounds opened up for me:
The DrumTraks by Sequential Circuits was my gateway; soon came a DX-7, an Atari ST, and endless loops spun through sleepless nights.

I was completely cut off from the outside world of the pre-internet era - lost in my own cosmos. 
Then came Berlin, and with it, new possibilities.
There’s this saying: "If you remember the ’90s, you weren’t really there."

At some point, I drifted into other things and put music aside for a while.
Until that memorable week in the park, just before COVID: I met a philosophy professor from New York, touring Europe, who tried to numb his post-op pain with red wine and oxycodone. He kept talking about his dream of recording a song. So I took him in, got some microphones and an interface, and after a week, we had produced his love song—radio-ready and brimming with magic.

That spark led me back to my own path: In search of new and inspiring sounds, I discovered the Elements by Mutable Instruments and dove headfirst into the world of modular synthesis. Ever since, I’ve been stuck deep in the rabbit hole - when it comes to choosing between new shoes and a new VCA, music usually wins.

Then, in 2022: a roadside, a spontaneous party, everything I owned that could run on 9 volts in my bag. 
My first live performance - improvised, raw, honest.
What’s grown and evolved from there, I call:

"Weird tones on the way to their mission."
